Coastal Redwoods

Coastal Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) are among the tallest trees on Earth, native to California’s foggy coastal region. They can reach heights over 370 feet and live for thousands of years. These trees thrive in moist, foggy environments, which provide the necessary moisture for their survival. They have thick, reddish bark that offers protection from fire and pests. Coastal Redwoods play a vital ecological role, supporting diverse wildlife and stabilizing soil. Their impressive size and age make them iconic symbols of natural beauty and resilience, and they are protected in national and state parks.
